Yes your right, their focus is around Ian, and honestly, they will be only able to act around like that to Ian bc first Ian and TJ had been tg for years and Jo, well idk. Sure they’re both fine and loyal, but they don’t match and have very different plans and reasons. I don’t think they would tbh and Ian doesn’t have to take notes tbh, they’re the ones really latching on to him ╮(-.-)╭
ian isn't a very good character in my opinion, and i don't they're necessarily latching on to him so much as he's facilitating their behaviour. obviously they like him but i think they would both feel very differently if they knew that ian was sleeping with them both at the same time, so yeah i think ian should take notes lmao. obviously the whole story is centered around ian so the endgame includes him, but that doesn't mean he isn't a shitty character and honestly it would be it would be a more compelling story if he went to find peace for himself and jo and tj either end up tgt (or don't) but that wouldn't make for a good story bc god forbid a bl has more complexity that a piece of paper. both tj and jo are stopping ian who obviously has some issues from finding peace for himself - he literally had a whole plan to leave and get away but neither jo nor tj allow for that due to his very complex relationship with both and so not only is he hurting himself both both those guys too. both jo and tj are a lot more alike, both very committed and protective and they both also don't have any plans to just dip and leave and so if ian left and there was time, i honestly think jo and tj would make for a good couple and it would make for a lot more of a complex, intriguing and healthy story.
Oh trust me they know Ian is sleeping with them and he makes it’s known and obvious, and Yes, Ian isn’t a very good character and honestly if you kind of think of it in his pov, leaving someone you loved is hard and trying to find comfort in someone is what he is trying to get right now. And honestly if they ever end up tg (Jo and Tj) I don’t think they would be a healthy story, as one is poor and trying to live while the other is going through something serious and might die anyways, yes it would be intriguing but not as a good couple and I think it would be kind of weird for them to even be together like they even have the same type of people lol, oh and the thing you said abt him facilitating their behaviour, yeah that’s true, but Ian and Tj has been together for so long so it’s normal for everything to be hard and the choices he makes maybe just out of everything they’ve been through tg. And Ian and Jo honestly I guess bc it’s something new he hasn’t really felt or been through he gets interested and didn’t know he would end up getting close to him tbh
wait when does he make it known to both of them that he's sleeping with them both?? bc i was under the impression neither knew?? but yeah i get what you're saying but i think while it is hard for ian to leave, he was ready to at the start, we see that he had a fake id and he was ready to go and find peace for himself. i think it's only after jo and tj literally trap the poor man into staying that he falls back into the cycle of toxicity. jo and tj ending up tgt or not really doesn't bother me i'm jsut thinking that in terms of story, if ian was to actually leave, they could be a potential match, i think that they could use their shared loss of ian to bond and could get tgt but honestly that would take a lot of complex thought and writing to pull off. i think all in all i was very intrigued at the beginning of the story bc i thought it would be one of healing for ian, finding a healthy partner in jo moving off tgt and away from his old life and it would come to a happy resolution. but i think the way this is going that's obviously not going to happen, and its stagnating with ian finding himself back in the loop with tj who is one toxic little mf and they've just moved onto this gangster plot to help create action. its turning out to be a lot more generic than i hoped and more than anything i'm just disappointed by that :)
You know the visuals when we see abt Jo’s pov it’s shows him seeing them do it, while Tj asked Ian if Jo was that good in bed. And your right, if Ian actually leaves they could potentially get together as some actually starts out with someone important leaving and them connect together and get together, although it would be hard, Ik it could actually work lol. And yeah this is more serious and the development really isn’t there it’s just a loop of strings, attachment, and heart break. And tbh when I read this I didn’t have much hope for the main characters and the two guys bc u know but just the art and the summary so far it isn’t gonna turn out good, good idea though, it’s just I hate pairing two guys who was after the middle guy they chasing tg because it’s feels like a waste, spending their time and lives on a guy just for them to be with the other guy, sorry
it's always Ian and Jo this and Ian and TJ that, how about Jo and TJ? like if Ian can't decide between the two of them how about the two js decide for him, like lets be real TJ and Jo would make a fire couple
